Saving fuel

General

Cut costs - preserve the environment and the machine.

Against the background of continually rising fuel prices, optimising the consumption of concrete pumps also helps to cut costs. It is important to distinguish between pure driving mode (to the construction site and back) and actual pumping operations.

Experience in the field

Only around 20-30% of fuel is needed for pumping. If drivers are trained correctly, e.g. by taking part in truck manufacturers' courses, even greater savings can be achieved in driving mode.
